microAIR MA95Z Lateral Rotation Mattress

Easily program the ma95Z to perform automatic patient rotation throughout the night or day eliminating manual turning by caregivers.
Lateral Rotation turns patient to in any direction to a preset angle for preset period of time. The mattress uses a menu driven system that is easy to follow and provides an array of functions including soft/firm button for patient comfort settings. The Control Panel is menu driven, steps you through the setup process, and allows quick modifications so the system can be customized to individual patient needs. Set it to rotate to either side, at any interval, for any period of time.

This is an aggressive prevention and healing mattress and includes True Low-Air-Loss, the preferred therapy for preventing and treating skin issues:

The MA95Z Mattress System is also used for patients with pulmonary disorders

What advantage is this product?The advantage of this type of system is the elimination of a caregiver needing to turn or rotate the patient every couple hours and eliminating the use of pillows and wedges to reposition the patient.
Pressure redistribution is key to both prevention and treatment of skin breakdown:

Patients incapable of moving themselves periodically are at high-risk of developing skin issues

A patient with existing skin breakdown must be repositioned often not only to redistribute weight and pressure points, but to also improve blood flow to injured areas

Available in Standard and Bariatric sizes, the MA95Z Rotational Mattress
is the most powerful healing tool for prevention and treatment of skin
breakdown.

The MA95Z offers all 3 therapies:

Lateral Rotation

True Low-Air-Loss

Alternating Pressure

Powerful Therapy:MA95Z uses a high-powered 1275 LPM blower to provide True-Low-Air-Loss Therapy. Compare this mattress with the microAir MA90Z which uses a much smaller 50 LPM compressor for Low-Air-Loss therapy.

This MA95Z Series Lateral Rotation Mattress has replaced the Invacare Turn-Q Mattress system.

The mattress is portable, and readily attached to most hospital and nursing home beds. The MA95Z replaces the mattress on standard medical beds. It provides continuous flotation in all turning modes assuring that patients do not “bottom out” on a hard bed surface. The mattress will maintain the patient on an air flotation surface during a power failure. When power is restored, the system will resume operation without intervention by the caregiver.

Aggressive Therapy:With the powerful 1275 LPM blower motor there is a little more blower noise to contend with, but this is aggressive, effective treatment for those that need it and incredible prevention therapy.

Programmable Rotation:The microAir Lateral Rotation Mattress is capable of turning/rotating the patient up to 45 degrees. The pump system is programmable so you can set or change rotation intervals. This eliminates caregivers having to manually re-position the patient through the day or night.

Best for Prevention and Treatment:The microAIR Lateral Rotation Mattress combines the benefits of lateral rotation, low-air-loss, and true low air loss and pressure relief in a single portable system. The system's two selectable turning angles provide the ability to bilaterally rotate patients a full or partial turn. This reduces the risk of complications associated with immobilization. In addition, the MA95Z offers unmatched patient comfort and pressure ulcer management by regulating heat and moisture, relieving pressure and reducing friction and shear. The process is automatic and completely adjustable.

Easy-to-use control panel:The user-friendly control panel allows the system to be customized to meet individual needs. New features like quick CPR deflate, panel lockout, low pressure alarm, and 24-hour backup help improve patient care. As with all microAIR products, the MA95Z is easy to install on a standard hospital bed and simple to operate and maintain. In fact, the microAIR Lateral Rotation Mattress by Invacare benefits everyone. It enhances patient care quality and increases caregiver productivity, all at an economical cost.

About Automatic Wireless (Fowler) Mode:When the bed articulates to 45°, the transmitter in the head of the mattress signals the control unit to increase the pressure in the mattress by 80% to prevent the patient from bottoming out.

Function Button:

Left: Rotation to the Left side. The time indicates the rotation duration.

Center: Rotation to Center. The time indicates the rotation duration.

Right: Rotation to the Right side. The time indicates the rotation duration.

Static: Static mode. All air cushions maintain constant pressure.

Pulse: Set 10 minute pulse time cycle. All of the air cushions in the mattress will remain static at the current pressure settings for 10 minutes, then the pressure in the mattress will decrease by 20% for five seconds. After five seconds, the mattress will once again inflate to the set pressure settings for 10 minutes, then deflate by 20% for five seconds, and the cycle is repeated.

Multi-Pulse: The cycle duration can be set from 1 to 99 minutes. In this setting, the mattress will remain static at the current pressure settings for the time selected. Then, every two minutes, for the time selected, the pressure in the mattress will decrease by 20% for five seconds. This pulse cycle repeats itself for the selected time. (i.e...if 10 minutes is selected, the mattress will initially remain static for 10 minutes. Then, every two minutes, the pressure in the mattress will decrease by 20% for five seconds. the mattress will then inflate back to the set pressure setting and remain static for the time selected and the cycle is repeated.)

Lateral Rotation & Head Elevation:The MA95Z will rotate the patient with the head elevated up to 40 degrees (or until the Fowler adjustment kicks in).

Price is for Mattress only, does not include hospital bed.

Key Benefits:

Automatic turning and static floatation modes

Easy-to-understand, caregiver-friendly membrane control panel

Bilaterally turns resident up to 45-degrees at preset intervals from 5 minutes to 4 hours

***************************************Bed Rails:The MA95Z series mattress is recommended to be installed on medical bed frames with bed side or assist rails. It is preferred that the rails be in the raised position whenever a patient is on the bed. In most cases the bed rails will not exceed the top of mattress. ****************************************

Basic Programming/Setup for MA95 Rotation:

This is just a basic Quick-Start for getting your new mattress performing. To setup for rotation you will need to set the function time for at least 2 functions, CENTER and LEFT or RIGHT or both! In other words, you will always want to set a duration for CENTER and then the duration for rotation to left or right or both. Locate the page in the User Manual for using the Rotation Button (current manual it's on page 15) and follow those steps. See the table showing the various functions (i.e. LEFT, CENTER, RIGHT, STATIC, etc). For example, LEFT says "Rotation to the Left side. The time indicates the duration". Duration refers to the amount of time to stay in that position.

EXAMPLE:Rotate patient to the LEFT for 10 minutes, every 2 hours:Set LEFT to 10 mins.Set CENTER to 120 minutes (2 hrs.)

In the same LCD Display you will see the Angle of Rotation and you can set it accordingly or simply stay with the factory default.

Features:

16" Mattress height includes 3" side bolsters

Magnetic hose connector is fast and easy to attach

Automatic wireless fowler adds 25% more air to mattress to prevent bottoming out when bed is articulated

This Mattress system is truly wonderful for the patient and their care. My wife was injured in an auto accident 19 years ago which left her paralyzed from the neck down. This new Micro Air MA95Z mattress system and it's predecessor model (Turn Q Plus) have in the past and will in the future be a continuing major contributing factor to her many years (past and future) without a bedsore and good health. Thank you Invacare for manufacturing a quality mattress system that helps improve the quality of life for my wife and many others in such a wonderful way.

I bought this for my wife who is in bed full time. Prior to purchasing this mattress I had to turn her every 2 hours night and day. Was nervous about buying something so expensive on the Internet, but when I shopped at local store it was $3000 more than what I paid. Was delivered in 3 days, works as advertised. Very happy with this company and product. Be prepared to read the manual if you want to use all the features.

Very happy with the mattress. It's pretty loud in a small uncarpeted room. I laid down a couple area rugs and it seems to help. But the mattress works perfectly.
